Granite Machine Kits

Coolant Kits

Increase production, get finer finishes on more metals, and extend the life of your tools. To keep your workpiece clean, cool and lubricated while you work, the Coolant Pack includes: Electric Coolant Pump Kit, Smithy Cutting & Tapping Fluid, Hose with Magnetic Base, and Premier 450 Synthetic Coolant.
Not included: 110v/220v plug - allowing you to either wire it directly to your machine or to wire it to a corresponding plug in your work area.

Granite I-MAX and Elite Lathe Pack

If you are looking to branch out into more lathe work, this Pack is for you. These tools put close tolerances, turning, threading and cutting within your reach. This pack includes: MT3 x MT3 Extension Socket, 6” Independent Four Jaw Chuck, 1/2” Cutters-one size of each, Carbide Indexable Boring Bar Kit (this kit does not include a Boring Bar Holder but the holder is included in the I-MAX Quick-Start Tool Pack that comes with the machine), 60° Center Gauge, Inch-Screw Pitch Gauge, Self-Ejecting Chuck Key.

Milling Packs

With the clamping set and V-blocks, you will be able to anchor and hold almost anything to your mill table. The double-ended mill set and fly tool cutters will have you facing and slotting materials all day long. Milling Pack includes: 53-Piece Clamp Set, V-Block & Clamp Sets, Double End Mill Set (3/8" Shank), Fly-Tool Cutter Kit, and 1/2" Collet.

Mount irregular shaped pieces to this face plate with your clamp set or 7/16” t-nuts for facing and boring operations. This is the most accurate way to bore single-cylinder engines with your lathe. When used alongside with a lathe dog, you can mount and turn between centers. The workpiece is rotated by the face plate and the lathe dog mounts around the workpiece and engaged into a slot on the face plate. This ensures that the workpiece is always perfectly centered.

This steady rest and follow rest kit is made to fit your Granite series machine. Cut thin or long workpieces with these rests. Steady Rests support work extending beyond the bed and clamps to the ways. Steady rest max diameter is 2.75". Follow Rest mounts directly to the carriage opposite the tool bit to keep your workpiece from flexing when the tool bit contacts it. Build your own custom brass tips or cut new ones when the original tips become worn.

5/8" Boring and Threading Kit

Cut internal and external threads with this tool holder, or use it as a boring bar. The 5/8” shank works with the Smithy Boring Bar Holder (47-520) or the Smithy Quick Change Toolpost. 6” Overall length. Minimum bore is 0.64”. Complete with the indexable threading insert (47-516) and 3/8” IC cutting insert (44-030). Replacement screw for this boring bar is 47-514.

Boring Head Combo Kit

Accurately bore holes or refinish holes with your mill. The set includes a 2” boring head and a nine-piece carbide-tipped boring bar set. It features three mounting configurations for the 1/2" shank cutting tools to allow you to bore holes from 3/8" - 5"+ in diameter. Some larger diameters will require shaping the carbide cutters and there are some practical limitations. When the cutter is mounted horizontally, the boring head will contact the bottom of a blind hole before the cutter. The head is adjustable in 0.001" increments and has a direct read dial for greater accuracy. The part number for the head only is 47-705.
The C6 carbide cutters are brazed on 1/2" shanks with a variety of chip sizes: a minimum hole range is 0.46" - 0.710" depending on the cutter. Maximum hole diameter will vary, again depending on the cutter, how it is positioned in the boring head, and type of hole being cut. The length of the cutters are from 2.250" - 4.570" in length and can vary slightly. The 9-pc set can be ordered separately, part number 47-700.
The adapter mount for the boring head is 7/8"-20.
Please select the right size shank for the machine.
MT3 millheads require shank number 47-720, sold separately.
R-8 millheads require shank 47-725, sold separately.

Smithy exclusive. Most cut-off tool holders are too tall for the standard turret style tool holders that come standard on the Midas, Granite Classic and Granite MX lathe tool posts. It will also fit in the standard tool posts on the MI-1237L and MI-1340L lathes.

These 5/8” tall straight-shank blades are drop-forged, and heat-treated. The holder is a Smithy design and fits great in the Smithy compound angle tool posts. Machined to precise tolerance, overall length is 5”, Your order comes with holder, blade and wrench. The holder features a 1/2' shank on the backside that mounts into the tool post turret. This blade can be resharpened until the holder can no longer grip it. Consider having a 2nd blade as backup. Replacement blade is 75-015.

The 75-015 blade will not fit in the Quick Change Tool Post - the replacement blade for the QCTP is 75-001.

Long-lasting quality GoodYear Vee Belt kits are available for the Midas and Granite machines. Durable 100% polyurethane belts, which produce less dust and are less costly then rubber belts, are available for the lathe portion of the Granite machine.

Carbide Tip Tool Bit 1/2"

Turn at higher speeds with these carbide-tipped tool bits. While superior for high heat and high speeds, carbide is more brittle and must have adequate support in your toolpost. 1/2” shank. Includes 1 each AR8, BR8, AL8, BL8 and E8. These tools can be sharpened until there is nothing left of the carbide or shaped as necessary.
To help with identification, remember the tool is identified as R (right) or L (left) depending on which side you normally begin making your cut. For example, if you start your cut from the tailstock end of the machine and cut toward the headstock, that cutter is identified as a RIGHT hand tool (R). Because you start on the right (R) and cut toward the left.
A LEFT hand tool (L) begins the cut on the headstock side and cuts toward the tailstock.
Summary:
L's are for left hand and R's are for right hand tools. On a typical lathe setup, right hand tools cut moving toward the chuck and left hand tools cut moving toward the tailstock.
A's have a 0° side cutting edge angle. An A tool, set perpendicular to the ways turns a square shoulder.
B's have a 15° positive lead angle. Positive lead means the cutting corner trails the remainder of the side edge in the direction of cut.
C's are ground straight across the end. Most are used as blanks for grinding a form tool (a particular shaped tool).
D's have a centered point with an 80° included angle.
E's have a centered point with an 60° included angle.
There is a number that identifies the shank size. The number is the shank size in sixteenths. An AR8 tool is a half inch shank tool, (8/16" = 1/2").

Quick Tool Holder Kit

Traditional collets only hold the shank of the cutter or tooling. The R8 Quick Change Tooling System incorporates a wider base on the fixture with a recess on the back that allows the fixture to rest on the face of the machine spindle. This wider base gives the tooling greater stability since it references off the spindle taper and the nose of the spindle - enabling the tooling to always return to the same height. The repeatability of the vertical location is critical for use with small CNC machines that use the R8 taper.

Collet holders are available as well as drill chuck arbors and end mill holders. The 3/4" shank tools are a great addition to the gang tool system used on the AutoMate RP GL-1108 lathe as well as other setups that accept the 3/4" shank.

5C Collet Kit

All you need to set up with collets. This 5C Collet Kit is perfect for machinist who demand higher precision. The scrolling 5C Collet Chuck secures the 5C collet in place and allows the operator to easily change out collets. Includes 8 collets (3/16" thru 1"), collet stop, 5C scrolling chuck, chuck key and collet rack. Available for the Granite and Midas series. Listed are all parts included in the kit, available for separate purchase. The only difference between the kits is the different collet chucks that are specific to the Granite or Midas.

*K99-320 - mounting hardware included will mount the vise to the base and the T-bolts will fit a 5/8" T-slot. If your machine has a 7/16"
T-slot (all Granite and Midas 3-in-1 machines have 7/16" T-slots), you will need T-slot nuts (see part # 35-105) to mount the vise to your
table. The vise alignment feet are cut to fit a 5/8" T-slot. To use the feet in a 7/16" T-slot, the user will need to modify the feet
width.
